As much as I enjoy wide angle lenses for their ability to create large sweeping vistas, I find longer focal lengths more challenging and compositionally more demanding. The interest for me is in abstracting a scene, and creating an image that may not be easily recognizable once the familiar elements that give some reference to its location are removed.
